Abstract (Original Language): 
Naevus fusculoeruleus ophthalmomaxillaris olarak da bilinen Ota nevus, 1939 yılında Japon dermatolog Ota tarafından tanımlanmıştır (1). Trigeminal sinirin 1. ve 2. dallarının innerve ettiği bölgelerdeki deri ve mukozalarda pigmentasyon artışı ile karakterizedir. Lezyonlar genellikle unilateraldir ancak olguların %5'inde bilateral olduğu bildirilmiştir. Yüzünde ve gözlerinde kahverengi lekelenme şikayeti ile polikliniğimize başvuran ve bilateral Ota nevus tanısı alan 32 yaşındaki bayan olguyu nadir görülmesi nedeniyle yayınlamayı uygun bulduk. ©2007, Fırat Üniversitesi, Tıp Fakültesi
